There is a coverity defect related "Unchecked return value".
The internal static hns3_reset_err_handle function is reset error
process of hns3 PMD driver. If failure in reset process, it does not
mean that the network port is completely unavailable, so the command
interface between driver and firmware still needs to be initialized.
Regardless of whether the execution of the function named hns3_cmd_init
is successful or not, the next process after execution must be
continued, so there is no need to check the return value. If
hns3_cmd_init fails to execute, there will be corresponding log
information inside hns3_cmd_init.
This patch adds '(void)' Type conversion to avoid coverity warning.
